Alex Tatarsky's "Dirt Trip"

NB: If you are having problems booking tickets or we have stopped sales, we have tickets at the door, so please come to Celebration Barn if you want to see the show. We will get you in.

An exploration of the fertile terrain between clowning and composting.

Linking American pop-cultural angst over the evil clown to efforts to banish garbage and urban blight, Tatarsky examines our fears of figures and substances that suggest transitional, ambiguous, and disordered states. Contents include the ballad of an unemployed court jester who desires to be a rotting vegetable and a lecture that decays into a heap of dirt.

“Dirt Trip is a beautiful blend of tightly researched monologues and manic physical improvisation.” – Noa Weiss, The Brooklyn Rail

“Gross and essential” – Savannah Reich, Cannonball
